In the theory of prof J.W. Atkinson the following formula of motivation:
M = P(UI+) x WK
M= motivation, P(UI+) = Perception of a favourable outcomeW= value for the person, K = costa or barriers
Your role as a facilitator is to maximize motivation and trying in cooperation with the participants to maximize perception and value and minimize barriers.

Exercise / Experience with blindfolds
Tips and Tricks• Always ask them how they would like to
be guided – don’t assume you know.• Don’t hold the person’s arm. Let them
hold your arm at the elbow, with your arm by your side.
• While you’re walking, keep talking to the person, telling them where you’re going and what to be aware of (for example, when you’re going up and down steps).

Tips and Tricks (2)• Always look back when you’re going through
doorways to make sure the person is in the right position and is not going to hurt themselves.
• If the person wants to sit down, allow them to manoeuvre into the chair independently, offering further verbal guidance if it looks as if they may miss the chair. Don’t push or pull people into the chair as this can be very distressing.
• Always let a person know when you are leaving them, and never leave them in the middle of a room.
